[QUOTE="pickup, post: 1339004"] off the top of my head, the tractor has steps that stick out from the body of the truck, unlike most package cars that I have seen. In other words, the width of the vehicle you will always be driving(with or without a trailer) will not be uniform from top or bottom. This little tidbit of info in conjunction with the fact that you will be coming through the entry and exit gates multiple times through the day(depending on your job) as opposed to just two times as you did in a package car means that if you don't take into consideration the information that Perfessor Pickup just gave you , you will probably have a scrape with your bottom step and the concrete foundations at the bases of the inbound and outbound telephones. Oh yeah, 2nd bit of advice: get a shifting job and stay in the yard until you are pretty comfortable with a trailer on the hitch. Better to back into a ups trailer on property than to back into a parked car next to loading dock of a shipper's property. [/QUOTE]
